Disappointing

Exceptional

Heavenly retreat.

Liked: This is an experience. Not everywhere that says it's an experience is an experience. It is an isolated wooden cottage in the middle of the countryside. Everything has been provided for a romantic weekend away from it all. Absolutely loved it. Photos don't do justice - but that one of the night sky? It's undoctored.
Disliked: Personally, would have liked a tiny kitchenette - but that is nit-picking, there was a microwave and browning oven.

I'd prefer to keep it a secret, but I want the owners to succeed.

Liked: I liked this place so much - I stayed here twice. Seriously. Two weekends in a row. The stars, the sky, the wheeling cockatiels, the kangaroos, the emus, the big sky - the crazy little dogs that came for a visit - the peace, the quiet. The break from the big smoke I just loved it.
Disliked: Nothing. Absolutely nothing.

Liked: Words cannot describe how amazing this little cottage is, it was truely the perfect weekend away that we had been looking for! If you are after something that's isolated away from the daily drive of life, beautiful scenery and the feeling that time has stopped! Then this is a place for you!! The photos don't do the place justice! We meet with the owners at the end of our stay, both wonderful people, easy to contact and always responded asap with any questions that I had! Also having to get the chance to meet them was delightful Thank you again for letting us stay at this amazing place! I will be booking here again in the future!!!
Disliked: The fact that I had to leave and come back home!! Honestly nothing to complain about, it was everything plus more than I could expect!!!

beautiful escape from the city in the comfort of a country cottage

Liked: this beautiful little cottage was so lovely, right on a glorious hill overlooking endless fields. the house itself was very clean, and the use of the indoor fire was so lovely. The bathroom has a massive tub and the hot water was enough to take a lovely spa every night- perfect for cold winter nights. theres a horse pen across the road with an emu and a few horses/sheep, which really added to the overall experience. the sunset is insanely beautiful, and the mornings reminded me of farms in Scotland, very atmospheric. Patrick and Leilani were available for any questions and were so lovely to communicate with, which made us as an LGBTQ couple feel very comfortable. I highly recommend Mancuso Country Cottage, its a perfect escape from the buzz of the city in the comfort of the country. cannot express my gratitude enough for allowing us to relax in this beautiful space.
Disliked: not a problem to be found, this was an excellent place to stay.just be aware that there isnt much cell service in the country so if you need to be connected, best prepare with a hotspot [ours worked].
